There are a lot of people that don’t pay attention to the illuminated signs on the roof of the drive-through windows that tell people that use the tube need to use it for dropping off their orders, not picking up. Several times a day I have to advise people that they need to drive around the building and get into the other lane to pick up their orders. Usually that is the time of day when the pick up window has a long line and some smarty-pants thinks that they are going to beat the system by coming to the other side and bully me into letting them pick up their order. Too bad for them – now they have to get into a longer line than it would have been if they had just taken their proper spot in the first place!

When we agreed to let my sister’s family move into the downstairs apartment, we really did not realize exactly how much plain old junk was going to come with them. We really did think and hope that a lot of their things would have been sorted through and sold, given away, or trashed. After all, when we moved here we spent a lot of time doing just that. That is the reason why we had enough room to create a small apartment downstairs.
Having made that apartment, our own storage space is now extremely limited, and I have to admit that I get frustrated when I go downstairs to get something out of storage that when I have to move a ton of someone else’s stuff out of the way to get to my stuff it can get annoying. None of us are in show business anymore, why am I tripping over an old microphone stand that has been bent up and is missing the base from it? I fear that my sister is a hoarder, and it is going to be a struggle to keep her hoard out of my space! At least all of her stuff is down in the basement on cement floors so I won’t have to worry about the floors rotting and giving way under all of her junk!
